MGMT

MGMT's live performance of "Time To Pretend" on April 28, 2014, at Apogee Studio coincided with a transitional period for the band. Leading up to this recording, they had released their self-titled third album, "MGMT," in September 2013. This album represented a shift in their musical direction, embracing a more experimental sound compared to their earlier work, which included the chart-topping debut "Oracular Spectacular." The live recording occurred during the week of the Coachella festival, positioning MGMT in a notable spotlight as they navigated audience expectations and their evolving artistic identity. Their performance, featured on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic, highlighted not only their established hits but also their willingness to explore new sonic territories, showcasing a blend of nostalgia and innovation in front of a live audience.
